Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A constant load exercise during 10 minutes will be performed in a group of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease patients, in a basal condition (spontaneous breathing); under noninvasive mask ventilation and with high flow nasal cannula. With the aim of reducing dyspnea, increasing exercise tolerance, and unload respiratory muscles, three exercises will be compared in terms of use of respiratory muscles and neural drive measured with paraesternal electromyography.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Exercise in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is limited by dynamic hyperinflation and respiratory muscle overloadleading to severe dyspnea. During exercise, the increase in neural respiratory drive is notable to match ventilatory demand, correlated with breathlessness. Non-Invasive Ventilation may improve neural respiratory drive uncoupling and exercise tolerance. The aim of this study will be prove if Non-Invasive Ventilation and High flow nasal cannula during exercise reduces neural respiratory drive and improves dyspnea, measured with paraesternal electromyography

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Cohort

All patients will be performed a basal test that consist on continuous cyclergometer exercise, under constant load, with spontaneous breathing, after that the same exercise protocol performed will be carried out under non-invasive ventilation (NIV test). Parameters will be titrated previosuly.

Finally the patient will perform the same exercise at a constant load under high flow oxygen therapy ( HFNC test).

Exercise with spontaneous ventilation.

Intervention Type OTHER

Patients will perform 10 minutes, constant load, exercise in a cycloergometer. To set the load, a baseline incremental effort test will be performed previously (VISIT 1).

Then, in a separate day (VISIT 2), the subject will perform 10 minutes cycling at the 75% load of that determined as maximum in VISIT 1, at a constant rate of 30 to 35 pedal revolutions per minute, in spontaneous breathing, with low flow oxygen through conventional nasal cannula adjusted to achieve SpO2 between 92to 94%

Exercise with NIV

Intervention Type DEVICE

VISIT 2 Non invasive mask ventilation: parameters will be titrated during a free cycling period at the end of the spontaneous breathing exercise. Then, in a separate day (VISIT 3), with the same constant load, cycling cadence and under NIV, the patient will perform 10 min of cycling.

Exercise with HFNC

Intervention Type DEVICE

With constant flows of 50 lpm and with FiO2 adjusted according to SPO2, to obtain a constant saturation between 92 and 94%. The same pedaling load and frequency will be maintained, with similar variables collected.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Patients with severe COPD or cystic fibrosis (with an obstructive pattern and air trapping) on the waiting list for a lung transplant, assessed by the Lung Transplant Unit of the 12 de Octubre University Hospital.
* Diagnostic criteria for COPD according to the GOLD and residual volume greater than 120% of theoretical
* Evidence of developing dynamic air trapping by analyzing flow / volume curves during physical exercise.
* Patients already adapted to home noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) waiting for transplantation.

Exclusion Criteria

* Presence of comorbidities that limit the patient's physical effort capacity (uncontrolled ischemic heart disease, severe pulmonary hypertension, neuromuscular disease).
* Refusal of treatment with NIV, or inclusion in the study.
* Inability to perform the proposed exercise in basal conditions and with ventilation.
